How Summer Lessons Work: To accommodate vacations and summer camps, CMC offers flexible lesson scheduling in Summer, so that students receive as many lessons as possible.

Summer Term is broken up into two “Sessions” June/July/August June 18-August 25 September * September 4-29 * September Session is ONLY available for returning CMC students, with priority to those continuing from Summer or School Year 2017-18.

Returning students: Consult the schedule on page 16 to find your teacher’s availability (subject to change). If you would like lessons with another instructor during weeks your teacher is away, check the box below section B on the application form.

New students: For the bext experience we suggest starting lessons in October for the school year. If this is not practical, we will accept summer lesson applications for new beginners on a case by case basis. Contact CMC for more information: 503-823-3177.

All students: • If there are any changes to your availability after submitting the application form, call the office at 503-823-3177.

• Once assigned, lesson times & instructors are only valid though September 29. All students for School Year 201819 must reapply (see box, left, for information).

Timeline: Late May: We'll start reviewing applications for June/ July/August lessons, so applying by this time is strongly recommended (even if you don't have your whole summer schedule figured out).

Mid-June: We'll call you to confirm your lesson time.

New applications for June/July/August from this time are placed with teachers on a space/resource available basis.

August 1: Deadline for September lesson applications (if not already applied with June/July/August lessons).

Mid-August: - We'll confirm your September schedule with you (if applicable). Be ready to take our call!

Suzuki vs. non-Suzuki: which method should I choose?

String Lesson Program students at CMC have a choice of two distinct ways of studying their instrument in weekly lessons. The age of the student, as well as how much the parent is able to attend lessons and work with the student at home will have a large part to play in making this choice. If you have questions about which method to choose, please call the CMC office (503-823-3177).

Non-Suzuki (Teacher/Student) Method:

This is the classic one-to-one approach to learning an instrument. The string player will practice every day at home between lessons on assignments given by the instructor. Parent/guardian involvement is not required, however parents of students younger than about 10 are strongly encouraged to assist the child with at-home practice. Parent observation of lessons is usually optional, but again, is highly recommended under the age of 10. At the start of lessons you may wish to discuss this with your instructor. CMC requires parents of new students choosing non-Suzuki lessons to register for & attend an orientation in September (see Parent Orientation in the School Year 2018-19 catalog).

Suzuki (Teacher/Parent/Student) method:

This is a family approach to music instruction that creates a “learning triangle� between teacher, parent (or guardian) & student. The parent, who does not need to have prior musical training, learns with the student & serves as the role model for the young player between lessons. Parents assist the young students in their practice at home each day as assigned by the instructor.

When the student is not practicing, the family listens to the recordings of the songs as much as possible to create the immersion that the method requires for the best learning experience. The goal is that music becomes like another language in the home. Parents are required to attend an orientation class in September (see Parent Orientation in the School Year 2018-19 catalog, or call the CMC office) prior to placement with their first teacher. When filling out the application form on page 17, please list availability where the child and practicing parent can attend lessons together. Parents/guardians are welcome to rent instruments from CMC to practice at home with their child - see page 13 for details.

Private Lesson Policy Information Practice Requirements It is important that students take lessons seriously, practice every day (at least as long as their lesson length), complete any homework assigned by instructors & progress in-step with their ability to learn.

Students not progressing in-step with their ability to learn will receive instruction on how to improve practice habits.

If no progress is made, CMC will require the student & parent to sign an agreement on how to improve practice.

Attendance Requirements & Policies Because regular attendance is important, lessons and classes should not be missed except in unavoidable instances.

As a courtesy to everyone an absence affects, the CMC office should be notified as much in advance as possible to allow for instructor schedule adjustments. Absences are classified as either Excused or Unexcused.

Excused Absence: Student illness or other unavoidable cause with notification as defined below. Excused Absences will be credited.

Student Illness: Notify the office verbally before the scheduled lesson time. Only one illness over the summer may be excused.

Other Unavoidable Causes: Notify the office in writing at least two weeks in advance using the missed lesson form.

This allows for us to notify the teacher, make necessary schedule changes and process credits.

Unexcused Absence: Any cause not listed above. No credits or make-ups will be offered for Unexcused Absences.

NOTE: A student may be dropped for more than two Unexcused Absences a term, three absences in a row, or four absences of any type during a term.

Because space is limited, a student may be dropped from the program if any of the above requirements are not met.

Withdrawal Policy Once accepted, the lesson time is reserved for your child through Summer Term. CMC understands that extenuating circumstances arise & occasionally a student must withdraw before the end of the term. Because of the effort it takes to set up teacher schedules, CMC’s withdrawal policy for private lessons is as follows: Notify the CMC office two weeks before the next lesson & a refund of paid fees will be issued for the remaining lessons in the term. NOTE: This policy is different than the general PP&R withdrawal policy.

How to Register Complete this application form and return it to CMC after reading Program Requirements below.

•This application is for Summer only. All students must apply again (starts August 13) for the school year.

•Instructors may require purchase of additional materials not included in listed registration fee.

•Non-residents of the City of Portland pay a higher rate for lessons. See page 30 or contact the office for details.

Wait patiently for a call from the office confirming a lesson time. This occurs about 2-3 weeks before lessons begin (scheduling starts JUNE 1). If we cannot place a student, we maintain a waitlist through late July.

Pay tuition at the time of confirmation. Once payment is received, the student is officially registered.

Lessons available June 18-September 29. Note: September is available only for continuing CMC students.

Private Lesson Program for Youth – Program Requirements CMC's Private Lesson Program for Youth strives to provide the highest-quality music education to as many dedicated students as possible, regardless of ability to pay. To this end, CMC makes the following requirements, which parents & students should carefully consider before committing to lessons at CMC. 1. Practice Requirements Students should practice daily for at least as much time as their lesson length, complete any homework assigned by instructors, & progress in keeping with their ability to learn.

NOTE: Students who fail to progress to the best of their ability will receive instruction on how to improve practice habits. If progress is still not made, CMC will require the student & parent to sign and fulfill a practice-improvement agreement.

2. Musicianship Requirements Only for String students during School Year - Waived Summer Term The CMC String program is more than just lessons. It is a sequential curriculum designed to foster well-rounded musicians.

• Beginning string students are required to enroll in, attend regularly, and do satisfactory work in Basic Skills, On My Way With Basic Skills, Skills I, or Skills I/II Accelerated. Four-year-olds are excused from this requirement, but are encouraged to take Launch Pad to Learning or Basic Skills & are required to take Skills at age 5. String Program students may take these courses at a reduced fee ($20 in 2017-18).

• Continuing string students are required to enroll in, attend regularly, and do satisfactory work in an appropriate Skills class, Orchestra, Choir, Piano, or Chamber Music (fees vary; see school year catalog or ask the office about prerequisites, special requirements, schedules & pricing).

• The musicianship requirement may be satisfied if the student is receiving comparable training elsewhere. This must be documented with an Exemption Form. See the CMC office for details.

• Students who begin in Summer become subject to the musicianship requirement upon enrolling for Fall Term.

3. Attendance Requirements & Policies Regular attendance is important. Lessons & classes should not be missed except in unavoidable circumstances. When a student must be absent, notify the CMC office as much in advance as possible to allow for instructor schedule adjustments. Absences are either excused or unexcused, as defined below: Excused Absence: • Student Illness – CMC must be notified before the scheduled lesson time. Only one illness per term may be Excused. Subsequent illnesses will be Unexcused.

• Other Unavoidable Causes – Notify the CMC office in writing at least two weeks in advance using the missed lesson form. This allows time to notify the teacher & make schedule adjustments. Excused Absences will be credited.

Unexcused Absence: Any cause not listed above. No credits or makeups will be offered for Unexcused Absences.

4. Causes for Dropping a Student Space in the Private Lesson Program is limited. At CMC’s discretion, a student may be dropped for any of the following: • Failure to progress to the best of their ability.

• Failure to fulfill the terms of a signed practice agreement.

• Failure to fulfill the musicianship requirement.

• Failure to maintain good attendance.

NOTE: A student may be dropped for two Unexcused absences a term, three Excused absences in a row, or four Excused absences during a term. Extenuating circumstances may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

5. Withdrawal Policy Once accepted, the lesson time is reserved for your child through Summer Term. CMC understands that extenuating circumstances arise and occasionally a student must withdraw before Summer ends. Because of the effort it takes to set up teacher schedules, CMC’s withdrawal policy for private lessons is as follows: • Notify the CMC office two full weeks before the next lesson & a refund of paid fees will be issued for the lessons that remain in the term. NOTE: This policy is different than the general PP&R withdrawal policy.

Community Music Center Need-Based Scholarship Application All information is REQUIRED. Incomplete applications will be returned unaccepted. One form per student, please.

For Private Lessons, submit the form with your application. CMC requires separate forms to be filled out for School Year and Summer.
